With $8.5 million in international bonus pool slots for the 2018-19 period, the Orioles have used nearly all of it under new GM Mike Elias and Koby Perez.

Orioles executive vice president Mike Elias said Tuesday that he's "not looking to part with" Trey Mancini in a trade, but the Orioles are "open to anything".

Trey Mancini and Mychal Givens have less than six years of major league service between them, yet they must now serve as veterans during the Orioles' rebuild.

For all the turnover the Orioles bullpen experienced last summer with their trades of Zack Britton, Brad Brach, and Darren O'Day, things stayed relatively stable this offseason at the back end of the bullpen.

What's proved to be a year of seismic changes for the Orioles on and off the field still packed in plenty of actual baseball over the required 162 games, even if it might have been nice for them to mercifully end by about halfway through.

Orioles manager Buck Showalter led the Orioles to success as part of a wave taking over the game that emphasize bullpen usage and defense. That the rest of the league caught up and passed them on that front doesn't take away from the success it brought.

Dan Duquette won't be offered a new contract to return as Orioles executive vice president.

Orioles executive vice president Dan Duquette said Monday that the team is "in the process of planning for the future" even as he awaits word on whether he will be offered a new contract.

The Orioles brought 15 new players into their organization in the July trades that began a drastic change in the franchise’s path forward, with a cadre of prospects.

After reaching heights as mid-market teams earlier this decade, the Orioles and Royals are in the midst of reconstructing their rosters. Kansas City seems to be further along in that effort.

Mychal Givens is getting save opportunities, and earning the trust of manager Buck Showalter.

Orioles manager Buck Showalter hasn’t announced a new closer yet, but he said Givens has the stuff to take the role.

The Orioles now have more than $8 million in slots to spend on international free agents.

The Orioles now face what could be a long climb back to competitiveness after making five trades over the past two weeks.

The Orioles dealt controllable players Jonathan Schoop, Kevin Gausman and Darren O'Day before Tuesday's nonwaiver trade deadline.

Evaluating Luis Ortiz, Jonathan Villar and Jean Carmona, the three pieces the Orioles acquired for second baseman Jonathan Schoop in a trade with the Milwaukee Brewers on Tuesday.

With the 4 p.m. non-waiver trade deadline approaches, it's "highly doubtful" than Adam Jones has a change of heart and decides to approve a potential trade to the Philadelphia Phillies.

But what comes next will say a lot more about the Orioles’ direction than the rhetoric that’s accompanied this month’s maneuvering.

The Orioles moved Brad Brach to the Atlanta Braves for international bonus slot money and said that they expect Adam Jones to remain with the club.

Orioles pitching prospect Dillon Tate, who was one of three pitchers acquired for closer Zach Britton from the New York Yankees, said the slow but steady progress he's made in his uneven career have him on track for success.

The Orioles are trying to trade Adam Jones, but have several hurdles before completing a deal.

The Orioles first shopped Zach Britton a year ago at this time, but he still seemed a bit shaken and emotional when a trade finally became real late Tuesday night.

The Orioles and Red Sox won the second game of their three-game series at Camden Yards on Tuesday night while Yankees moved closer to acquiring Zach Britton.

Their main ask will be a top prospect, as centerpiece center fielder Yusniel Díaz was in their deal with the Los Angeles Dodgers last week.

The Orioles allowed two two-run homers in the eighth inning in their third straight loss after the All-Star break.

If Zach Britton and Brad Brach are traded, who will pick up the late-inning load in the Orioles' bullpen?

The Orioles’ rebuild has begun, and the team’s players and staff realize that things are going to start looking a little different now.

It might seem as if all the Manny Machado trade speculation is sucking the air out of the Orioles clubhouse, but it’s not just about him.

Orioles relievers Zach Britton and Brad Brach put on display how quickly conversations about trade value can turn with divergent outings in either end of the doubleheader split with the Yankees Monday.

They have also expressed interest in relievers Zach Britton and Brad Brach, both of whom are pending free agents.

The Orioles’ fate has long been determined, but Thursday night’s series-opening 5-2 loss to the Twins at Target Field – their 10th defeat in their past 11 games — offered some positives, but also more reasons for frustration.

With the nonwaiver trade deadline this month, the Orioles find themselves in an act-now mode in terms of resetting the club's future. Where do they stand with their potential moves?

It was deep in the falling action when Friday turned into Saturday at SunTrust Park and Manny Machado homered in the 15th inning to send the Orioles to an eventual 10-7 win over the Atlanta Braves.

The Orioles know their season is over, but they haven't done much to move their focus beyond 2018.

With Darren O'Day back and Zach Britton soon to follow, the Orioles will have their full bullpen for the first time this season.

Orioles reliever Brad Brach squandered a three-run lead in the ninth inning in Toronto.

When Chris Tillman was finally shuffled out of it, the Orioles rotation had a 5.84 ERA. It's lowered over a full run to 4.53.

Orioles closer Brad Brach had a pair of saves in less than 24 hours to continue a strong run at the back end of the bullpen, reversing his rough start.

"Obviously, we haven't had the kind of season that we were hoping for, and it's time for us to look at our competitive position and see where we can help our ballclub internally and for the future," Duquette said.

The Orioles' insistence on saving the likes of Mychal Givens, Richard Bleier and Brad Brach for protecting leads in the absence of Zach Britton and Darren O'Day only goes to show how difficult things have been around them.

After a rocky start to the season for fill-in closer Brad Brach, Orioles manager Buck Showalter sees his All-Star reliever turning a corner.

The Orioles' Mychal Givens entered Monday night's game against the White Sox in the sixth inning with two runners in scoring position and nobody out, and he escaped the jam and pitched another scoreless inning, too.

Three solo home runs against the White Sox were enough to give the Orioles, who had just five hits overall, their fifth road win of the season.

Orioles reliever Brad Brach locked down the ninth for his first save since April 11.

It didn't come easily, as the Royals brought the winning run to the plate in the ninth inning, but the Orioles' 7-game losing streak is history.

Orioles reliever Brad Brach is being used much earlier in games than his All-Star status would suggest in an effort to get him back on track after a rough start to 2018.

Brad Brach's struggles to put hitters away with two strikes continued Tuesday in Anaheim.

Instead of going quietly Tuesday night, the Orioles rallied in the bottom of the ninth inning before losing on Justin Upton's walk-off single against Brad Brach.
